1:00 am
i will do it. we have to educate these people. that is our show. reagan. we'll see if we make-or-break the cycle. david: have a wonderful weekend. melissa: i'm melissa francis and here's what's money tonight. bone dry. the gas crisis deepens. officials say receive is on the way but the shortages could keep spreading before things get better. "money" covers all the angles. plus, tempers reach a breaking point in the post-storm aftermath. the power is still out and supplies are dwindling. could civil unrest be far behind? we'll talk to one business owner who says order is unof ravelling fast. a firestorm erupt over the new york city marathon, generators, water, valuable resources are being used while countless new yorkers are still suffering. the mayor says the race will go on. i think it is crazy. a legendary marathon runner
1:01 am
is here exclusively to disagree with me. even when they say it's not it is always about money melissa: all right. first let's take a look at the day's market headlines. better than expected octobe jobs report failed to lift stocks after some early gains, the major indices tumbled closing at session lows. the dow fell 139 points. shares of chesapeake energy helped drag down energy stocks. the natural gas producer reported a third quarter loss and said it is delaying scheduled asset sales. there was one bright spot though on the day for sure. that was starbucks. shares of the coffee giant soared 9%. it solid beat fiscal fourth quarter earnings estimates while raing the full-year profit outlook. look at that stock. now to our top story. the dire gas shortage is a consequence of the super storm.
1:02 am
drivers are waiting for hours upon hours to fill up tanks only to be turned away because the station's tanks run down while awaiting. cars are being abandoned in lines up to half a mile long because they can't get ga there are reports of gas rationing siphoning and fights breaking out at stations. we even heard of one instance of someone pulling a gun because someone cut a gas line. things are falling apart in new york. everyone wants to know how long will it be before drivers have access to gas? joining me now, patrick dehaan, chief petroleum analyst with gasbuddy.com. i was talking to someone before the show had a lead pipe thrown at her at a line in a gas station. >> wow. melissa: it is getting really crazy out there. is it going to get better anytime soon in terms of the supply? >> it is called liquid gold for a reason. everybody is fighting for it. it will get better but unfortunately this isn't something that heals itself overnight. it will take several days before power is restored to
1:03 am
more and more facilities, more and more terminals. meanwhile it is simply a waiting game. melissa: yeah. i mean some people have tried to blame this on panic. that people are filling up before they really need the gas. it has gone far beyond that. tell me what exact i is the problem here? is it a lack of power? is it a lack of supply in the area? what's specifically, give me the chain of events? >> well, what we're seeing here is because of the lack of power, that is first and foremost, there is a lack of power to numerous facilities. secondly it is a logistic nightmare. melissa: distribution centers. we're not necessarily talking about the gas stations because where we see people lined up they do have power. >> right. melissa: you're talking about the big central facilities where the tankers would go and fill up and take it to the gas stations that is where there is loss of power? >> that's right, exactly. it is at the big terminals. basically big storage depos is where the gasoline is stored. some of those have still
1:04 am
been knocked out. the good news there are a few different areas where station owners can pull product. they may have to go further and charge more but there are some options. melissa: you hear governor cuomo out there saying tankers pulled into the harbor now and they are unloading. will that help or is that not really where the problem is? >> it is not really where the problem is. gas stations many times, they're still gasoline underground. the exception is the stations that have power are quickly selling out. but, for the stations that don't have power right now, there is still likely gasoline in storage tanks underground. it just can't be pumped up. we're waiting for stations to have access to power again. many more stations again can start pumping gasoline already underground in their storage tanks. melissa: for places that have power and don't have gasoline why can't they get gas from further away? does that mean this problem will then spread to neighboring states and neighboring communities? >> it can get a little by
1:05 am
the technical when station owners pull product from elsewhere. first of all if they're getting product from a different terminal, first of all there has to be an agreement in place, a way to pay for the gasoline. a lot of time credit is used to pay for, you know, 30, $40,000 worth of gasoline. they have to open a credit account or figure out how to pay. then they have to find a truck driver and a truck that can bring it to them, unless they're a big station owner and they have their own truck. there is a lot of logistics involved pulling product out of states. some states have different laws. we've seen some of those laws being waved. melissa: let me ask you a quick before we run out of time. only a third of gas stations in new york city are open. a third in new jersey, a third in long island. how long do you bet it will be things are back to normal and you can pull up to a station and not wait five hours for gas? how long? >> i say a week before a lot of gas stations arenline. melissa: a week. thanks so much for coming on. appreciate your time. >> thanks. melissa: patience is in
1:06 am
short supply across the region as drivers who can find and open gas station have to deal with lines that literally stretch on for miles and miles. i mean, you can take this kind of video almost everywhere across new jersey and new york and just see these lines. rick leventhal is live in clifton, new jersey, one of these places with the latest. and, melissa, i want to add something to what your guest is saying. we were at a service plaza on the garden state parkway there. they didn't have power there but had a large industrialized generator and that generator was powering pump. some gas stations with fuel down below and could get big generators. they could join stations pumping gas. this is one of them in clifton, 10 miles outside of new york city. apparently the only gas station that has fuel and can pump it up. we were at a couple stations that run out of gas and hundreds of cars lined up that had to be turned away
1:07 am
because they ran out. people are lining up at the pumps. they have handheld gas cans because they have cars at home that ran out and cars on the side of the road ran out. police officers are here with issues people cutting in line. if you look down rout 3, westbound traffic, the line of cars on the side of the road stretches up over the hill and down the road. it would continue for probably at least three miles, melissa, except they don't have a shoulder over that hill. so they're cutting it off and forcing people to circle around and come back. hopefully get in line to wait a couple of hours to get here to top off. a very desperate situation for many people in new jersey. as your guest said it could be a week or more before the power is on and these lines disappear. melissa: incredible. this is all over the place. rick leventhal, thank you so much for joining us. for more insight on this we're going to on the phone a man that owns two gas stations, an exxon in new
1:08 am
jersey and jersey city, pardon me and a sunoco in hoboken. thank you so much for joining us. let me ask you, have you run out of gas at either of your stations? >> no. i have not run out of gas. i have plenty of fast in the ground at my jersey city location i have no power. at my hoben location i have, i run a generator today but the city of hoboken asked me not to sell gasoline to the public, you know, just to, city of hoboken, police cars, emergency vehicles and ambulances, school bus us. melissa: wow! how do you feel about that? >> well, i would like to help the public. i have been making a living doing this for the last 30 some years, you know. and it pains me to see people in line waiting to buy gas and, the ironic thing is i have fuel but i can not sell it. melissa: i know i understand
1:09 am
that they want the gas for emergency vehicles but how quickly do you think that you would run out if you opened your gas station up to every everybody? >> if i opened my gas station to the public i would probably run out, if not tonight, maybe early tomorrow morning. all depends. i have enough gas in my tank for about 500 cars. melissa: so, what are you hearing from your supplier? when you run out do you think you can get more or are you done? >> well, i was on the phone with sunoco today and they, they told me that they could get me a load, okay, around 8800 gallons tomorrow. i don't know, i believe it with when i see it. >> what about your other station where you say you have gasoline but don't have power, what have they told but getting power back there and do you have any hope maybe getting a generator over there? >> i have a generator there. i plan to, to get it running
1:10 am
tomorrow, okay because i need to be there and right now i'm very busy here. if we run a generator, we can only sell gas for cash, you know. we can not process any credit card sales. and that's, that's a problem, you know. so --, and also, i don't want to run afoul of the local ordinance. in jersey city they tell me that the same as here in hoboken, that i won't be able to open, you know, my pumps to the public, then i have to comply. melissa: wow! and do you worry at all about your own safety with customers as you're out there doing that? we're hearing really scary stories of people getting out of control in the lines because they're frustrated, tempers are short. this is what happens on the fourth or fifth day of a storm? are you worried about your safety? >> i'm worried about my
1:11 am
employees because they are the front line guys. most of my customers here in hoboken have known me for a while. so pretty much, you know, all they want is fuel in their cars. they don't want to start any kind of trouble. melissa: yeah. >> in jersey city is a little bit of a different story because we have a lot of transient customers. melissa: yeah. >> that most probably don't live in jersey. they probably live in the city of new york and that would be a little bit of a problem but my main concern is the safety of my employees. melissa: goes without saying that you're losing money obviously. >> of course. nobody's, you know, nobody is going to win this kind of situation. we just want to make it less painful. melissa: thank you so much for coming on your show, coming on our show. we hope to check back with us next week to see how things are shaping up. >> very well. anytime, ma'am thank you. melissa: gas shortages and
1:12 am
dwindling supplies are rapidly bringing things to a head in new york city. one business owner says civil unrest seems near. he is here with a first-hand account of why. plus the final jobs report before the election comes in strong but still may not be enough to make a difference on election day. we'll break that one down. more "money" coming up. ♪

♪ . melissa: so we just got word power is finally back in the east village in the lower east side in new york city but looting and mayhem hit the streets over the last few days. there were even reports of the guard yen angels out protecting the streets. with me, with his stories is edward, chef and owner at eddie and wolf a local hot spot in manhattan's lower east side. thanks so much for joining us. what do you see over the past couple days? this is what a lot of people are worried about with tempers high and lights out in lower manhattan the darker side would prevail. >> well, like the lower east side and the east village, alphabet city is always nitty-gritty anyway.
1:17 am
minus the light, minus the power if not, with basically no people around on the streets it does get a little bit scary at times. people are afraid. nobody is out there anymore. it is a ghost town. melissa: yeah. people around here who live down there have said that, they want to go home but they're afraid to be there at night because there is sort of no one out patrolling the streets and there is no light. the worst element is taking over. you know you say that you have seen people trying to steal generators, gas, taking inventory. that you, left a gas container outside you seen it was stolen. what are some of the things you saw happen downtown? >> basically the worst thing happen to my manager she got robbed at gunpoint, two or three blocks south of eddie and the wolf with her boyfriend being slightly beaten up and not bad. credit cards, cash, cell phone which doesn't work has been stolen. people do steal generators.
1:18 am
after three, four people started to carry it away, listen guys, we need that. the same with gas. we've been having gas supplies to the backyard. it is pretty bad because number one, who has generators if you have one? if you want to buy one they're sold out. like the next problem is the gas supply. melissa: right. >> no electricity, no heat. people, we give people candles if they need it because obviously we don't need them anymore. it is pretty bad down there. people basically, food container got dropped off on avenue cnd 8th street. people were taking things out of there, to feed their families. it is pretty, pretty bad. melissa: it has gotten to that point in the storm where at the beginning there is crisis a lot of people come together and help each other and you see the best sides of folks. >> absolutely. melissa: after a few days, that wears away, when things get really desperate and when lights don't come back on and too food doesn't come in. now i understand you have six people out just protecting the supplies that
1:19 am
you have right now, just trying to hang on what you have? >> we have got lights running. we have gas running. at least we can cook for them. whatever supplies we have left which are perishable after two or three days will be used. they're happy to have a hot meal and really happy to be in a more or less warm and well-lit restaurant. but i'm telling you like this should hopefully stop like three, four days. but again, even though con edison is restoring power to downtown man at that time tan, everybody's basement is flooded, wet meters, those people will not have power for a while. till will be interesting to see how long they take for them to restore power in all those businesses with the boss loss we had, with our employees we couldn't pay, the staff, et cetera, they have to pay rent first of november, just passed. it is pretty, pretty bad. melissa: edward, thanks coming on the show.
1:20 am
best of luck to you. >> thank you. melissa: mayor bloomberg was telling new york to lace up for the annual marathon on sunday because why would people on staten island who needed waters and toilets and generators right now need those supplies instead? i said it was terrible. now it appears he has finally backed down after sticking to his guns just a few hours ago. one of the world's most famed runners is here exclusive to run through it all with us. plus october jobs report comes in strong. can they help make a winning difference for president obama on election day? we'll talk about that one too. do you ever have too much money? we'll be right back. ♪

1:24 am
melissa: all right we have breaking news right now. the new york city marathon is officially canceled. superstorm sandy wreaked
1:25 am
destruction throughout the new york city area. all this time mayor bloomberg is insisting the marathon would go on as planned this sunday but now, the mayor confirms, the marathon will be canceled after all. he just did it. joining me now in a fox business exclusive is famed marathoner, bart yasso, the chief running officer with "runners world". give me reaction to this news? >> yeah, you know i'm shocked. when i came into the city, left my home in pennsylvania where we didn't have any power, when i got here, i listened to the mayor's press conference and he said the race was on and, you know, it wasn't going to affect, they weren't going to take any resource from people that need help devastated by sandy, so i supported his decision knowing that. melissa: he was on earlier today. he was on the air and he came out and at time it was 1:00 this afrnoon eastern time and he insisted that it was going to continue even though there was so much pressure.
1:26 am
the front of every paper today showing pictures of generators that would be used to power media and other things in central park when there are people all over the region desperate for generators for heat and for fuel. don't you think that's a tough sell? >> yeah. you know i think he was put in a tough position at this point. the thousands of runners are already in new york city, filling all the hotels and restaurants. i was surrounded by runners all day down at the expo. i have got to admit the runners that i spoke to no one was talking about their personal race or what they were going to do on sunday. they were all talking about how the storm affected city and they did have concerns for all the citizens that lost their homes or displaced or still without power. so it was on everyone's mind. i'm assuming that the mayor, had to assess everything and, where this got to the certain point where they thought it was the smart thing to do to cancel the race. melissa: there was so much pressure, it seemed, it was
1:27 am
so hard to watch the organizers get together bottles of water, blankets, generators, exact thing desperate people all over the region needed. that was an image stuck with so many people. how did those images impact runners getting ready to run? you talked to them. how did they feel about that? >> yeah. they would have toilets and we would have water throughout the course. and they were concerned. they really were. i guaranty you every runner would give up resources in this race to send to staten island or breezy point wherever people need resources. runners are a pretty caring group. there is so much money raised for charity through this great race. so you, know, just a sad thing. i have to trust the mayor. i've seen him, you know, through a lot of rough times in this city, through his tenure and he always seems to make the right decision. i'm assuming he really looked at resources they had and how it will affect people. he felt that the smart thing to do was cancel the race.
1:28 am
melissa: when we started this show you were prepared to come out here and disagree with me whether or not this race should be one. i just thought the resources should go elsewhere. i certainly understand, the spirit he was trying to evoke was this idea that new yorkers, you know, we hold our head high and we'll work through anything. that the show will go on. the marathon will go on. it came to be too much pressure when you look at resources that are needed elsewhere. so you were prepared to come out here and say it was right the race should go on. did you change your mind? >> i was prepared to stand behind the mayor's statement was a go and personally i was going to run with the race and be with runners that thought it was the right thing to do to go out there and run, so, yes, i personally am behind this statement. again i'm not privileged to all the information he knows what kind of resources people don't have on staten islandnd other parts. city. he is privileged to that information. now, i absolutely support his decision not to run the race. resources are needed we have to go where the people need
1:29 am
the resource. >> disappointing but now we have to all pull together and guest past this. bart, thanks for coming on the show. i hope you come back. >> thank you so much. melissa: here is our question of the day. do you think the marathon should have been canceled? did the mayor make the right decision? like us on facebook.com atmel list is a france fist fox or follow me on twitter at melissaafrancis. all the candidate ads may be driving you nuts but one candidate is here bringing sweet silence. he is here to explain one of the best ads i have ever seen on the other side of this break. ♪

melissa: now on to today's jobs report. unemployment rate ticked higher in last few months, something the president need in the last few days of the election. still stayed below 8%. compare today's 7.9% number to 1980 when jimmy carter was running for re-election against ronald reagan. unemployment rate on election day back then? 7.5%. it was lower. we all know jimmy carter lost. so with me now to discuss what today's numbers could mean on tuesday, our economist peter morici and nariman bear verb, chief economist at ihs. welcome back to the show. get your reaction to the number today. nariman, was it a surprise to you? >> not really. we expected decent growth. we actually expected unemployment rate to go up by .1 which it did. this is a little better than we thought it is basically a good report, not a great report is the best way to say it.
1:35 am
it was more or less as we expected. melissa: peter you made a great point it would take 349,000 jobs every month for next three years just to get back to 6%. if you want to call at that's report good, i mean a lot of people are, put it in perspective it does, is that right? >> that is c. we've been getting ds for last several months and now we get a "c." it is not a great report considering how much the economy is down, we should create 350, 400,000 jobs a month without too much trouble. that is what reagan accomplished. that is how he got himself reelected. my feeling there is something wrong with the numbers. i don't mean anybody is cooking them because that, jobs growth is too rapid for economy only growing at 2%, and also has 2% productivity growth. either is lot more gdp growth out there than we know about or this pace of jobs creation is going to slow down. melissa: nariman, is it possible the economy is growing faster than we think it is? >> it is entirely possible. i think there are early
1:36 am
indications it might be. the other point to be made which kind of reinforces is what peter is saying there is some seasonal funny factors if you want to call it that. seasonal adjustments are all off. a lot of it having to do with the great recession, the deep recession we went through four years ago. so i don't completely trust the month to month changes in the numbers but the longer term trends i think are reasonable. melissa: but, i mean regardless all that, even if the number was twice what it is today, i mean that's what we really need to get things on, back on track. that is what you would expect from the kind of deep recession we've had, you generally bounce off that in a v-shaped recovery. i mean that is sort of the normal pattern. what has happened this time that is prevented that from happening? go ahead, nariman. i will let you go fst. >> i'm sorry to interrupt. the big difference we're coming out of a financial crisis where we're overleveraged. that deleveraging process
1:37 am
usually results in subpar growth for extended period of time. it happened in the u.s. and happened in other countries. it is that sense different from a garden-variety of recessioif you want to call it that. melissa: peter, do you agree with that? we have ceo's on the all the time say that is the not the problem. they are held back by government regulation and too much debt and they blame in short for the president that we don't have a "v"-shaped recovery. >> i think there is element of that. deleveraging stopped about 20 months ago and consumer spending took off in the recovery and the recovery was strong in the beginning. so much we spent went abroad to china. we had currency imbalance. all that on imported oil. all that is lost purchasing power. my view this is not a typical business cycle. the u.s. economy is structurally broken and some of the things this administration has done made it worse. like the banking regulations in new york don't fix the banks. they make it impossible for
1:38 am
them to bank. and so my feeling is that there is some arguments on both sides but i'm not very optimistic that if mr. obama's reelected much of this is going to get fixed. >> nariman, i give you the last word. do you agree with that? >> i have two disagreements. one that deleveraging continues if you look at things like household debt to disposable income numbers they keep going down. households are still deleveraging. the other issue we were able to go rapidly in the '90s and 2000s and import a lot. i don't blame globalization or trade the fact we're growing slowly. no. i think we're deleveraging. i think that is big factor for households and banks. >> we agree to disagree. melissa: good for you. thanks for coming on, guys. we appreciate it. have a great weekend. here to react to the october jobs report is phil angelides. he is obama surrogate, former head of the financial crisis inquiry commission. phil, welcome back to the show. >> good to be with you,
1:39 am
melissa. melissa: go ahead and spin it for us. why is this a good report? >> let me start with something one of our guests was talking about. this was a trauma to the financial and economic system. if you look at the long history of climbs out of financial crises, ken rogoff and carmen reinhardt in their very well-regarded study generally takes seven to 10 years. what we're seeing is a very strong and steady trend line. 5.had million private sectors jobs created over the last 32 points. -- months consumer confidence at five-year high. we're beginning to see the housing economy recover. in fact i'm in community here where we were extraordinarily hard hit. the trend line has been very clear around consistent. we need to being a sell rate it but my strong belief it is president obama's policies of investing in infrastructure and clean energy and education and beginning to thought fully balance the budget that will allow to us continue to accelerate. melissa: i mean, investing
1:40 am
in clean energy, infrastructure. we saw all the shovel-ready jobs that weren't shoveleady. money wasn't even completely spent. if you look at, i mean you guys like to point to the five million jobs in the private sector has created. it is always interested what timeline you choose to pick. if you look at real timeline you should take credit for starting in january of 2009 when obama took office, we have 194,000 more jobs than we did when he took office. i mean four years. >> let's be inlex wally honest. melissa, when he comes into office we're shedding 800,000 jobs a month. because of the, bush policies, that collapse on wall street. you have to give the guy a little time to get the house in order. let me be blunt about clean energy. it has been a net job creator in this country. the solar industry, renewables industry has grown. now in california we have 300,000 people working in the clean energy industry. 3 million across this country. so i think if you look at the long-term trend trend line it is very clear and
1:41 am
very solid. say something about the reagan comparison. ronald reagan started his re-election year in '84 with eight plus percent under employment. he got it below 8%. president obama has now got the unemployment rate down a full point over the last year. so the trend line, unlike jimmy carter is very clear. melissa: trend line is going other way. it went up this month. went from 7.8 to 7.9. green energy. solar what you want to highlight? more abound, more sole sole of a story of solar energy companies going bankrupt. that is what you guys want to cling to? >> well the fact is, it has been a growth industry overall. there can be right-wing or republican spins on that. over the last year the unemployment rate --. melissa: how much tax doars and what could the tax dollars spent on? >> can i say, melissa, give the president a little credit here. net more new jobs than when he took office in the wake. melissa: 194,000. >> well, but in the wake of the biggest financial disaster. what does romney do?
1:42 am
melissa: got 16 million people who need more jobs at a rate -- four years 194,000 how long would it take to 16 million back to work four years for 194,000. i'm going to be dead by the time everyone is back to work. you've been talking a lot. i will will give you last word. >> romney wants to deregulate wall street tax breaks for the wealthy and do european style austerity where the eurozone has 11.7% unemployment. melissa: not where we want to go. all right. >> that is last word. nice to be with you again. melissa: thanks for coming on. coming up on money, zen and campaign ads don't exactly go together. one republican candidate is bringing voters much-needed r&r he is special laugh -- especially after the last segment. he is here in a fox business exclusive to give you a break from all the fighting. at the end of the day it is all about money. ♪

[waves crashing] melissa: ah, like a breath of fresh air in midst of very nasty campaigning. was it money well-spent. will it hit the mark with voters in the congressional election. he joins me right now in a fox business exclusive. we wanted to bring you on and reward you for doing that by giving you a little extra airtime. what has been the response been like so far? >> you know what? i think our voters here in massachusetts, we're getting the hit by the new hampshire ads, the boston ads. i think people want a little break. introducing a little lefty into the campaign it at this late date i think voters appreciate it. melissa: did you run other
1:48 am
ads where you hit your opponent over the head with a hammer or something just to balance it all out? >> yeah. there has been a hard fought campaign in the 6th congressional district and north shore of massachusetts so it is kind of a nice way to end it. but we've been talking about the economy and the debt and getting, you know, the job market back in this area and throughout the country. you know, throughout the course of the campaign. and, i think voters listening to the message but want a little, like i said, a little levity at this point. melissa: have you heard from folks about the ad in particular? or has it gone by unnoticed because people sort of relax but don't know what it is for? >> no. definitely noticed. you know what? good way to cut through the clutter right now. we have a pretty intense congressional campaign, a u.s. senate campaign, a new hampshire is right next door to us on the boston media market. so we're seeing all the presidential ads as well. so, you know, people like, i do think have been so
1:49 am
